A thought on “the ink of the scholar…”

“The ink of the scholar is more sacred than the blood of the martyr.” If you “like” this term, you are showing your appreciation for a core tenet found within Islam. The power of knowledge and the search for it must trump all violence and warfare. Jesus and all the prophets would agree with this statement. We aren’t all that dissimilar even as we might come from different religious traditions. In the end it’s about our common ground and humanity. Let us spread knowledge and emphasize education when trying to solve the problems of the world.
